The South Shore Women's Hockey League (SSWHL) consists of over 25 women's ice hockey teams representing the Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire areas.  The league and it's teams are USA Hockey registered, and consist of 4 Senior Divisions - A, B, C, and D, coinciding with the USA Hockey designation for the women's divisions.

 

This website was created to keep those teams informed about the various aspects of the league, and is hopefully a useful resource for players wishing to get more involved with women's ice hockey, in addition to a tool for the league's participants. 

 

The Bulletin Board section below will be a posting of all league events, and can be used to inform team administrators of meetings, players of available ice times, teams looking for players and/or coaches, etc.
